"usa today" asked romney campaign senior adviser russ schreiffer this question on a conference call with media today. >> i wonder just in crass political terms if you think the president's response to sandy has been helpful to him, and are you annoyed that governor christie has been so effusive in his praise of the president? >> governor christie's doing his job, and he's doing exactly what he's supposed to be doing as the governor of new jersey. and the president is doing what he needs to do as president. >> after mitt romney ignored reporters who asked him at least 11 questions on his position on fema funding yesterday, mitt romney released this statement today.

he can't do anything certainly for chris christie. going around with mitt romney and his secret service detail through the affected areas of new jersey would actually cause more problems and wouldn't help at all, whereas going around with the president helps him look at the damage really view it for himself. he can get something out of doing that with the president. i think romney unfortunately is the odd man out. >> and here are the words that chris christie can never say again in this campaign. he said this just 11 days ago in virginia. let's listen to this. >> anything in his life, so the president doesn't know how to lead. i mean, watch what he's been like for the past four years. he's like a man wandering around a dark room. hands up against the wall, clutching for the light switch of leadership. and he just can't find it. he won't find it in the next 18 days. >> steve, he's just erased every statement like that that he's made and he made a lot of them over the last couple months. >> yeah. you're seeing, to pick up on joy's point

and chris christie will have a little extra punch to his argument. because as he rightly points out, what he's asking for is for new jersey to get its own money back. new jersey sends in more money to the federal government than it ever gets back in federal spending. per person, new jersey sends in more money than any other state compared to what it gets back in federal spending. the wealthier states have always done this. the phenomenon was first tracked by then-senator from new york dannal patrick monahan who based his funding on that fact that new york sends into the government far more money than it gets back. while at the same time states like alabama, alaska, louisiana, kentucky, mississippi, west virginia, wyoming, they all operate as clients of the federal government, collecting from the federal treasury far, far more than they ever send in in tax payments. these states have always lived off new york's money and new jersey's money and connecticut's monday and california's money and they've always been represented by conservative politicians h

are you surprised that the republicans have been so transparent how shaken they've been by chris christie? >> somebody in the romney camp is so angry at governor christie that they're leaking out the word that the reason he worked on hurricane relief with the president, as if he needed some other motive, is because he was jilted in a marital sense from the vice presidency he had almost been promised and he was left at the altar and they went with ryan. so they're trying to trash his motives here. somebody in the romney camp must have the okay to do that, which means they're looking for a scapegoat if they lose. or they say they can take some of the gleam off of this good working relationship between the governor and the president. but they're up to something, putting out that trash talk about this cooperation which they say romney will engage in if elected. is bipartisan good or something to be trashed? >> apparently bipartisanship is good if it serves your own purposes. i think it speaks to a certain desperation, as does the jeep ad they've started running in ohio. let's take another lis
